Perhaps the telescopic slide would be able to extend farther but, in alot of RV parks they would probably be limited due to narrow RV spaces. I just went to the RV show in Pomona CA and saw the Country Coach Veranda model (extending patio) which I didn't find practical because, ( would you want to set on your patio and be 1' from your neighbor's RV / window) ? I asked the salesman if he would open it at an RV park, and his reply was "if the space was wide enough".

The advantage of the telescoping slide is INTERIOR space. You can get almost twice the slide depth without needing room for those deep slide walls when it is brought in. Very handy for a bedroom, where the bed takes up a lot of room.

Some people will like it and some won't. I don't particularly like it due to narrow sites and you end up having to crawl into bed and I would be concerned about excess "flex". But I agree that it does get large pieces of furniture further out of the way and creates more floor space, but at the cost of less "outdoor space".
